Short summary
The proposed methodology is easy to use and inexpensive (a free software with minimum amount of data requirement); yet it is very effective in terms of pinpointing the flood-prone locations in urban areas particularly. Expectation is that it provides simple modelling concepts to be help of decision makers in preventing life and monetary losses due to floods. The study is based on an EU project aiming at using simple tools for applicable results.
